If I die

If I am to die in the blink of an eye
Let me know my life was live as High as I-
Could live it.

Bury me under an old tree by the sea.
Let me live out my eternity in Peace-
By the shores.

Let me slumber under the arc’s of a church.
Lay me under a window where birds will perch-
On spring days.

But most of all, let my story be told well.
Whether I dine in heaven, or bask in Hell-
Life was grand!
I'm Vin btw. Pleasure to meet you all.

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.
